Nodame Cantabile Story Live Orchestra Visual
The original Nodame Cantabile manga was serialized from 2001 to 2010 in Kodansha’s Kiss manga magazine. An English language version is also available from Kodansha USA, who describe the story of the series as follows:
The son of a famous pianist, music student Shinichi Chiaki dreams of studying abroad and becoming a conductor like his mentor. Unfortunately, his fear of flying grounds his lofty plans! As he watches other classmates achieve what he has always wanted, Shinichi wonders if he should quit music altogether. Then one day he meets fellow student Megumi Noda, also known as Nodame. This oddball girl cannot cook, clean, or even read a music score, but she can play the piano in incomparable Cantabile style. And she teaches Chiaki something that he has forgotten: to enjoy his music, no matter where he is.
